Monday 2nd September
SHE SAID:
I had a semi-chores day today, a day at the house with things to do. Not exciting, & minor success with things I wanted to tick off my list. I’m still waiting on the B***** insurance claim for the windscreen on the hire car back in November last year! You can't speak to a human; I have tried, of course they owe me money. It's driving me bananas.
I did some planning for hunts in the next few weeks, plenty to keep me busy!

Evelyn hard at it with the dozens of Clubbed Spiders Tobias NOT orchiding, on his phone! |
HE SAID:
The awning on the van has seen better days and needs some attention. I got a couple of estimates for replacing it but the prices were extortionate, so I decided to do it myself, but in a slow, step-by-step way. Today I went into Mandurah and bought a couple of parts for the frame mount and slider arms. It would have been cheaper to buy them online but I wanted to get it done today. In my usual way the job took much longer than I had anticipated, but there was success in the end! Now I need to decide when to replace the actual awning material. And, the fitting of it will need Varena's help, so, as she's rather busy with orchids at the moment, I can wait. We may even get another year out of it yet. Who knows?
